nice car for sure, but near the price of the m3 so i would rather get the M3 over the isf. though i do think the ISF is a beast.

That's very interesting that the price in the US is even close.

Up here in Canada, you can get a fully loaded 2010 IS F or C63 for roughly around $74-76K. A fully loaded M3 will run you $90K. A $14K premium just doesn't seem worth it, imho, even though the M3 is an amazing machine.
